A Growing Market
Olivier expects the global pet food market to continue growing in 2025.
'We love our pets and owners are spending more on them than they ever have before,' Olivier said.
As the growth continues, CPM will be right there each step of the way.
'We are a one-stop shop for the customer,' he said. 'From your standalone solution to turnkey systems, that's where we're going, and it's a complete cycle with aftermarket and automation.'
Innovation at the Forefront
CPM is positioning itself as an innovative leader in the segment as well. One example is the use of a new permanent magnet synchronous motor in its extruder. Olivier said customers are already seeing the benefits from the design.
'Our motor is smaller than the typical motors out there, and has a stable torque with lower noise pollution,' he said.
The motor delivers up to 10% in energy savings, reduces noise pollution by 30% and is half the size of a typical motor in the pet food extrusion market, making it easier to transport and install.
Using Experience to Build the Future
Leveraging the years of experience from its family of brands, CPM is also in the process of developing a new dual-pass dryer and vacuum coater.
The dryer comes from Wolverine Proctor, which boasts more than 200 years of experience in the thermal industry and is a leader in the food processing sector. The vacuum coater is in production with IDAH, which is a leading shrimp feed equipment provider in Asia.
'We're really excited where this is going,' Olivier said. 'Our full lines include first dry kibble with capacities of 3, 5 and 10 tons per hour before expanding to other applications.'
CPM also offers hammermills, preconditioners and everything else on a pet food line.
Comprehensive Solutions
The equipment is designed and manufactured with the customer in mind. It's hygienically engineered and made to be durable and affordable. That includes spare parts and service for the lifetime of the equipment.
'Since we manufacture all of the parts, we control the process,' Olivier said. 'We have better control in-house; we know the equipment is durable. Plus, we're fast and flexible in making it.'
Marketplace
Reducing downtime, costs and errors is also a priority. CPM's automation solutions mean customers from a single location can receive, monitor, grind, batch and perform thermal control applications across their plant locations, all while backed by the industry's best applications and engineering support.
Looking Ahead
CPM has innovation centers strategically placed around the globe and expects the newest one to arrive in China in 2025.
'Our innovation centers really allow us to perfect our customers' processes so they can be confident that their product will be at its best with our equipment,' Olivier said.
